Advice asked from my European readers. I am looking for a good #webhost solution. No great computing power needed, just a website with Javascript, serverside python and a postgres db. Should be as flexible as possible (i want to be able to tinker with settings and install libs). Preferably running on OS software, but certainly on a European server...
I still need to rethink my web host.
Siteground is really very good but too expensive and no data centre in Canada. They also use Google Cloud which makes me very uncomfortable.
The WordPress theme I use is resource intensive so I may need to rethink that too.
Peoples... I told a company about a problem and they fixed it.
THEY FIXED IT.
I posted on the Opalstack forum about my concerns with their very broad Acceptable Use Policy language (see post this replies to) and less than 24 hours later they changed it. It now reads (IMO; not a lawyer) reasonably.
I think I need to calm down; this is an unusual experience and I don't know what to do with myself.
OK, seriously, this makes me like OpalStack even more. I can't remember the last time I told a company about a problem with their policies and they actually listened.
Since that's one thing, I'll list two more for #3goodthings

Wie op zoek is naar professionele hulp bij ontwerp, onderhoud, herstel of hosting van Wordpress-websites kan ik @cyberia warm aanbevelen. Ik trof deze ontwikkelaar toevallig op Mastodon en diens focus op privacy, security en duurzaamheid trok mijn aandacht. Deskundig en met persoonlijke aandacht ben ik verdergeholpen. Kosten noch moeite werden gespaard om mijn vragen te beantwoorden. De site is in goede handen, ik ben een dankbare klant.
Mag ik even reclame maken voor KEURIGONLINE ? #webhost #webhosting
Dit heb ik op Trustpilot gezet en daar sta ik al jaren achter. Ik heb er diverse websites gehad. Nu heb ik er alleen geparkeerde webadressen maar ze helpen me nog steeds 100%.
"Uitstekende dienst om je eigen website te hosten in eigen land. De prijzen zijn schappelijk, de servers zijn stabiel, de service is top. Aanrader!"
:boost_ok: Can anyone point me to a webhosting company in South Africa that is not big tech?
No AWS, Azure, GCP, for instance. I'd prefer to avoid anything involved in apartheid.
Snippet of what I've been up to lately:
Why Use a Country-Level Domain Extension?
Using overseas hosting (outside the United States) is a smart move and something we encourage — it can provide greater privacy, legal protection, and sovereignty over your data.
However, hosting alone is not enough.
Even if you host your website (for example, on a .com) in a country like Germany, while your files and database may be safe, your domain name itself can still be subject to U.S. law. Many domain extensions — including .com, .net, .org, .info, .us, and .edu — are governed by U.S. jurisdiction.
Additionally, many word-based domain extensions — such as .social — are managed by private corporations based in the United States, which can still put your domain name at risk of legal or commercial interference. Corporations can also be easily bought or influenced, unlike sovereign nations. Historically, sovereign nations tend to seek to hold onto their sovereignty — even when they are financially broke or fundamentally broken.
Domain takedowns are rare, but the possibility exists — especially in today's unstable political climate. For example, even close allies like Canada have experienced tension with the U.S., and Donald Trump even tried to instruct Microsoft to discontinue services to Denmark, raising the question: What is "normal" anymore?

Any #SysAdmin #Webhost type folks recognise what's happening in this screenshot of an #FTP connection attempt? It will loop this indefinitely. Hosting provider seems to be unable to fix it, or is out of their depth. This is after the webhost did an internal system migration. No change at my end (which worked perfectly before their migration).
According to them, FTP works fine *for them*. For me, it effects all FTP apps, and whether my ISP IP, or any VPN IP.
Basically a website requires two services, most platforms do both for you. In this case it was not. You have a domain name and a server. The domain name is what you type in to go the website, and the server is the computer in some data center running the website.
The owner had paid for the server, but not the domain name. Two separate platforms. And so when you tried to go their website, it would say "this domain is for sale, buy it now"
I've just finished migrating my homepage from an American to a Japanese host. Many technical problems along the way but the site seems to be loading nice and zippy. Now to begin updating the content and design...

I'm checking out free web hosting providers that can be used for fun and personal websites.
I wanted to know what to recommend to people who want to make their own website, so I decided to try things out for myself!

Found a solution.
Create a user unit file in /etc/systemd/user, which can be enabled for loginctl linger-users, which just continuously watches on the Hugo content path …
i.e.
> systemctl enable --user --now hugo@$(systemd-escape $HOME/wwwroot/domain)
Continuous Build made easy.
